In short: Undulating was an understatement!!In full: It was a great morning! The weather was superb, the location was top notch, the marshals were brilliant! For me I thought it was quite challenging which is good for me. Maybe i should enter a hilly race to see the difference between the two because i thought this one was quite hilly! i will definitely be back next year! Date of review: June 16, 2009

In short: Enjoyable run over a reasonably challenging route-particularly enjoyed the lolly at the end,lots of water stops on the way round,but was strangely devoid of atmosphere until the crowds at the endDate of review: June 16, 2009

In short: The One With The Ice LollyIn full: Never medal the medal and t shirt it's the Ice Lolly every one wants!!!maybe next year they should make the medal that shape!!!Very well run 1/2 marathon.well marshalled with plenty of drink stops.I'll be back next year

In short: Very hard going - but very good fun for itIn full: The route is challenging, the majority of it was uphill, or at least it seemed that way to me and my legs. However, the inclines were not particularly steep, but they were long and varied. Thankfully the scenery and general supportiveness of other runners keep you going. Highly recommended, but do make sure you train first!Date of review: June 16, 2009

In short: Much better than expectedIn full: Having read some mixed reviews from previous years I was not quite sure what to expect. Ended up being very surprised and will be back again next year. Good course with mainly closed/quiet roads, endless water stops and 'fantastic' marshalls. Many thanks to all the volunteers on the route. Ice lollies at the end a nice touch and the whole event had the feel of a family day out with lots going on. Only gripe with parking and not turning cars around at the entrance to the park rather than letting them queue for 10-15 minutes to only find there were no spaces. Ended up parking in town which cost me £8. Yikes!Date of review: June 15, 2009

In short: Hot, hard work but worth it - and don't forget sunscreenIn full: trained harder for this than for previous two half marathons but it took 10 minutes longer - well worth putting in some hill training to enjoy it properly. The ice lolly at the end was the best I've ever tasted & I would have guarded it with my life. Very well organised and friendly with good parking. Quite a quiet race - not much chatting along the way because of the hills! I found this race quite a challenge and would have been put off if it had been my first. I would enter again if I'd put in enough training.Date of review: June 15, 2009
